GamePad Digital GPD XP (XD2) (X7) is a clamshell gaming handheld launched in 2021. Powered by Helio G95 (8-core, 2.05 GHz), 6GB LPDDR4X RAM and Mali-G76 MC4 GPU. Features a 6.81" Touchscreen, IPS LCD display (2400 x 1080, 20:9). 7000 mAh battery and WiFi 5, Bluetooth 5.0. Runs Android.
That hardware covers a huge library: from Atari, NES, SNES, Mega Drive and the Game Boy family up to PlayStation, Nintendo 64, Dreamcast, Saturn and Nintendo DS. PSP, GameCube and Wii are playable, while PS2 sits on the edge, with results varying from title to title. Arcade fans get MAME, Final Burn Neo, NAOMI and Atomiswave, plus OpenBOR, ScummVM and Pico-8. Active cooling with a heatsink, fan and ventilation cutouts even comes with a dedicated fan control button.
The 6.81-inch IPS touchscreen offers FHD+ 2400 x 1080 resolution, a 20:9 aspect ratio, roughly 386 ppi and 60 Hz, protected by Gorilla Glass. The wide format suits modern Android games, though 4:3 retro titles will show black bars on the sides. A screen mapping button helps you use physical controls in games designed for touch.
Controls include dual analog sticks with L3/R3 in an asymmetric layout, a separated PS Vita-style D-pad in the lower position, four face buttons and vertically oriented L1, R1, L2, R2 shoulders, plus rumble and a gyroscope. Back, Home, Overview, volume and power buttons round out the set. The plastic body measures 233 x 83 x 18–41 mm and weighs 375 g.
The 7000 mAh battery charges over USB-C. Connectivity covers WiFi 5, Bluetooth 5.0, 4G (internet only) and GPS, along with a front camera, dual microphones, bottom-facing stereo speakers and a 3.5 mm headphone jack. The 128 GB of UFS 2.1 storage can be expanded via microSD.
Android 11 lets you install emulators, frontends and native games, and the permissive modding policy leaves room for customisation.
Ideal for: players who want a versatile Android handheld with a large screen, 4G connectivity and solid emulation up to PSP, GameCube and Wii.
